dbo:abstract Starz is an American hard rock and power pop band from New Jersey. Despite a lack of major commercial success, the band has a lasting cult following and has been cited as a major influence by bands such as Mötley Crüe, Poison, Bon Jovi, and Twisted Sister. (en) I Starz sono un gruppo hard rock statunitense formato nel 1975 a New York. Gestiti dalla stessa compagnia di management dei Kiss, la Aucoin Management, gli Starz sembravano avere tutte le carte in regola per sfondare, ma non riuscirono mai ad emergere ed ottenere il titolo di grandi star al pari dei loro concittadini. Rappresentarono i primi esempi del pop metal, genere che si affermerà fortemente negli anni ottanta e del quale risultarono come tra i precursori. Infatti, molte note band hair/pop metal degli anni ottanta affermarono di essere state influenzate dagli Starz, dai Cinderella e Poison ai Bon Jovi e Mötley Crüe. Nikki Sixx (Mötley Crüe), Tommy Thayer (Black 'N Blue), Tom Keifer (Cinderella), Rikki Rockett (Poison), Jon Bon Jovi (Bon Jovi), Jani Lane (Warrant), e Ginger furono solo alcuni degli artisti che citarono gli Starz come un'influenza nella loro musica. Nel 1989 il giornale musicale Kerrang! inserì i primi due dischi degli Starz, l'omonimo ed il successivo Violation, nella classifica dei "100 migliori album heavy metal di tutti i tempi". (it)
